NORAD

For security reasons, I can't reveal some things of the past, but you can go to a website and look it up for your own information www.norad.mil

My military experience is one like - you had to live it, breathe it, feel it, talk it - inside a command center -- kinda like you see in a suspense, action packed, drama movie (military type movie)

From south of Haigler about two miles on Hiway 27 on one of those high hills, you can see Pike's Peak on a crisp clear winter day when there is no smog or haze. Not too far from Pikes Peak, there is the Strategic Command Headquarters burrowed into the side of a mountain. It would be redundant of me to say things that I experienced 40-45 years ago, to the generation of today. There are many new technologies, devices and changes to the defense systems of today's wepons.

The tactical defense in the operations room, where I was assigned, in my opinion was a very impressive assignment for that time era.

I will write a different analogy later on, putting some humor into this experience.
